According to Bohr's model of the hydrogen atom, electrons move in specific orbits around the nucleus called.
Correct answer: B. Shell
- A. Quanta
- B. Shell
- C. Clouds
- D. Wavelengths
Explanation
According to Bohr's model of the hydrogen atom (1913), electrons occupy specific energy levels or shells around the nucleus. These shells are labeled as K, L, M, N, etc., and correspond to specific energy levels. Electrons jump from one shell to another by emitting or absorbing energy in the form of photons

About Atomic Spectra
Atoms emit or absorb light at specific wavelengths because electrons occupy quantized energy levels and change levels by absorbing or releasing photons. The topic covers emission and absorption spectra, spectral series, hydrogen’s line spectrum, energy-level transitions, and the relation between wavelength, frequency and photon energy.
